Medical emergencies involving children are rare events. The experience of emergency physicians is therefore low and the results are correspondingly poor. Assistance services to help in emergencies are regularly requested. The use case is thus very complicated, a complex system consisting of multiple devices is necessary to provide the most efficient and effective service. This short paper presents prototypically tested ideas on how such a ubiquitous approach can be designed and how communication between devices can be simplified and ensured.

Perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) increases oxidative stress through inhibition of mitochondrial β-oxidation.
Environ Pollut
December 2024
Center for Pathobiochemistry and Genetics, Institute of Medical Genetics, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria; Exposome Austria, Research Infrastructure and National EIRENE Hub, Austria.
PER: and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large group of synthetic organic chemicals that are ubiquitous environmental pollutants. Among PFAS, perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) is one of the most toxic compounds, but the molecular basis behind its toxicity is not fully understood. In an interspecies comparison with placental cells (HTR-8/SVneo) and zebrafish embryos, we demonstrate that PFDA induces mitochondrial dysfunction and impairs fatty acid β-oxidation.

Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Unit, Department of Pediatrics, Faculty of Medicine, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey. Electronic address:
Phthalates and bisphenols, ubiquitous compounds found in various everyday products, have garnered attention due to their potential health-disrupting effects. This study aimed to (1) investigate urinary phthalate metabolites and bisphenol A (BPA) levels in donors and recipients prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and monitor changes in these compounds in pediatric recipients at different time points (Day-9, Day 0, Day+7, Day+28, Day+90), and (2) assess their association with engraftment success. Urine samples from pediatric recipients and donors were collected for analysis of phthalate metabolites and BPA in 34 donor-recipient pairs.

BMJ Glob Health
December 2024
Global Bioethics Collaborative, Los Angeles, California, USA.
Conscientious objection is a critical topic that has been sparsely discussed from a global health perspective, despite its special relevance to our inherently diverse field. In this Analysis paper, we argue that blanket prohibitions of a specific type of non-discriminatory conscientious objection are unjustified in the global health context. We begin both by introducing a nuanced account of conscience that is grounded in moral psychology and by providing an overview of discriminatory and non-discriminatory forms of objection.

Curr Psychiatry Rep
December 2024
Department of Political Science, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, 48109, USA.
Purpose Of Review: Conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) is a frequent but not ubiquitous part of warfare, affecting not only survivors but also their families and wider communities. This thematic review describes advances in research on CRSV, reviews new developments in the literature, and proposes recommendations for future study.
Recent Findings: An increasing number of studies consider how to address methodological and ethical research challenges, how understudied victim/survivor groups as well as families and communities are affected by CRSV, how survivor-centered justice mechanisms can be developed to reduce impunity, and how CRSV is perceived by different actors.
Love as a Commitment Device : Evidence from a Cross-Cultural Study across 90 Countries.
Hum Nat
December 2024
Institute of Psychology, University of Wrocław, Wrocław, Poland.
Given the ubiquitous nature of love, numerous theories have been proposed to explain its existence. One such theory refers to love as a commitment device, suggesting that romantic love evolved to foster commitment between partners and enhance their reproductive success. In the present study, we investigated this hypothesis using a large-scale sample of 86,310 individual responses collected across 90 countries.
